D’oh! Stolen Homer Simpson Statue Found

“This case has been solved,” Mazlan Mansor, police chief of Malaysia’s central Petaling Jaya district, told The Associated Press.

The fiberglass replica of Homer holding a TV remote control was part of a promotional display at a local cinema for the upcoming big-screen version of the U.S. TV cartoon series.

The exhibit included the rest of the Simpson family _ Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie _ sitting on a couch at a multiplex lobby in a popular suburban shopping mall near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s largest city.
